Recently, the limited series called The Serpent came out. It is a crime drama developed by Mammoth Screen and commissioned by the BBC. The eight-part limited series is based on the crimes of serial killer Charles Sobhraj, who preyed on young tourists on the Hippie Trail between the years 1975 and 1976.

All of us, or well, at least the remaining 50 percent of the entire population who had escaped the "Thanos Snap", had loved and relished the moment when Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Black Panther (love you Chadwick), and co kicked the purple-colored genocidal warlord's a** in Avengers: End Game.
Now, having grown up watching superheroes like Batman, Superman, Spiderman, and the rest through movies or TV shows, we have always gotten up from our seats at the sight of them demolishing supervillains back to their very layers to restore peace in the world.
Β© Twitter
However, since most superhero movies star actors from the United States, the United Kingdom, or Australia (our very own God of Thunder, Chris Hemsworth), Indians unfortunately, have not had a chance to see any of their countrymen don the glittering, spandex-made superhero costumes.
Unless, of course, you are counting Krrish from the Koi Mil Gaya Franchise. Well, while we all love Hrithik for his abundance of talent, the franchise, unfortunately, does not have a lot of suitors within India, let alone, overseas.
Luckily, for Indian superhero fans, we could finally be seeing one of ours jumping skyscrapers or flying alongside Thor and the rest of the Avengers in the next MCU Phase IV.
Yes, according to recent reports, our very own talented actor/director/musician/screenwriter Farhan Akhtar has bagged a Marvel film, which is currently under production in Bangkok.
Well, while the project is said to be top secret and his role is kept under the wraps along with everything else, we decided to make a list of superheroes the Kartik Calling Kartik actor could end up playing.
Well, here it is:
1. BANSHEEWhen Walt Disney's acquired the 20th Century Fox back in 2019, the Marvel Cinematic Universe or MCU gained access to a plethora of characters and storylines from the X-Men universe, which had earlier been kept separate.
Β© Comicbook
This means the likes of Wolverine, Cyclops, Fantastic Four, and Deadpool can now join hands with the Avengers.
Well, while it looks unlikely that Farhan would be lining up to replace Hugh Jackman any time soon, one character that he could end up playing might be the Banshee.
A mutant, who possesses the capability of unleashing a "sonic scream" that can harm the auditory systems of enemies, the Banshee could be a perfect character for the Indian actor.
It was last played by Caleb Landry Jones in 2011's X-Men: First Class, however, Farhan could spring a new life into the character by channeling the inner rockstar of his old Rock On! days.
2. QUICKSILVER Β© Screenrant
Quicksilver or Pietro Maximoff is said to be one of the fastest mutants in the Marvel universe and we couldn't find a better candidate to play the role than India's on-screen Milkha Singh, Farhan Akhtar.
Not only is Farhan familiar with competing at the highest level in sprinting, but he also has the acting talent to bring the best out of the superhuman speedster.
However, with Evan Peters already showing up on the WandaVision tv series as Quicksilver, it looks like Farhan might not have the chance to have a go at it. He'd have been a good choice though.
3. THE HUMAN TORCHThe Human Torch is one of the four members of the team of Fantastic Four along with Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Girl, and The Thing.
With the last Fantastic Four movie bombing at the box office, there is a big chance that there will be a new casting for it altogether.
Β© Comicbook
The Human Torch has the ability to engulf his entire body in flames, fly, absorb fire harmlessly into his own body, and control any nearby fire by sheer force of will.
Well, it is safe to say that Farhan would literally light up the screen if he plays this character.
4. Marvel Boy Β© Comicbook
Marvel Boy is one comic book character that has never been adapted to the movie screens till now, but with MCU now bringing in newer superhumans into the fold to expand the multiverse, he might just get his chance.
Also known as Noh-Varr, Marvel Boy belongs to the militaristic alien race of Kree and has powers of superhuman strength, reflexes, and mind-controlling saliva.
With the Kree already being introduced for the first time in Captain Marvel, we might just get to see Farhan Akhtar becoming Marvel Boy.
5. CHAKRA: THE INVINCIBLEThe best is usually saved for the last, and it happens to be no different in this particular list.
Β© Comicbook
While all the other characters had different origins, some from other parts of the world, or well, galaxies, this superhero actually happens to be the first Indian superhero created by the late Stan Lee.
If things materialize, Farhan could end up playing Raju Rai, a resident of Mumbai who possesses a technological suit that weaponizes all the Chakras in his body and makes him a superhero.
Well, we cannot wait to imagine Spiderman and others carrying out an "Avengers Assemble" cry near Gateway of India.

βMy intention is to take his (Irrfan's) legacy forward and not to become a star,β Babil Khan said on the sidelines of the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa that he attended along with his mother Sutapa as the festival paid homage to Irrfan.
Irrfanβs son Babil Khan is all set to make his acting debut with the Netflix film Qala. Directed by Anvitaa Dutt, the film is produced by Anushka Sharma and her brother Karnesh Sharma's production house, Clean Slate Filmz. It will surely be an interesting watch as we will get to see Babil working his magic for the first time.
With Babil taking Irrfan Khan's legacy ahead, we feel that he would surely try to keep his father alive through his presence in the cinematic world and we also feel that the young lad is following the footsteps of his father. Hereβs why we think he is Irrfan 2.0.
1. Unconventional Entry To CinemaIf you have seen Anushka Sharmaβs work as a producer, you would have an idea that she doesnβt follow the cliched ways of storytelling and Qala is expected to have a unique storyline too.
With Qala as his debut movie, Babil has already chosen an unconventional path. Sharing the teaser, Babil Khan wrote on Instagram βTripti freaking Dimri is back again!!!!!! Whooooooo!!! (and a little bit of me) Also, Iβm a bit skeptical about the phrase βgetting launchedβ because the audience should launch off their seats while watching our film and not any individual actor. βFrom the creators of Bulbbul, Clean Slate Filmz, and Anvita Dutt, we bring you #Qala, a Netflix Original film. Qala will be here soon to share the story of her fight for a place in her mother's heart (sic).ββ
View this post on Instagram
When he attended the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa, he was asked when the audience would get to see him on the big screen. In response, Babil said, "The thing is I have to do it the right way and I'm working on it giving my energy towards it. But, the thing is that I have to come in the right way. I don't want to do a big movie where I'm dancing and like it makes 100 cr...there is no artistic value in it."
As his father changed how the audience perceives cinema, we are certain that Babil is here to do the same.
2. Here To Break StereotypesIrrfan smashed stereotypes of a typical hero as, earlier, the audience thought of the protagonist as a tall, handsome, and good looking man but Irrfan proved that itβs only the talent that matters. Well, Babil is breaking stereotypes in his own way. For instance, he'd earlier spoken about making makeup normal for men. He was trolled by many for applying makeup whenever he stepped out of his house and then, he gave it back to all those people who have such a narrow mindset.
He wrote on Instagram, "Can you believe some people STILL go, 'Are you a girl?' when I apply face masks or make-up before going out? I think every person is made up of a cosmic duality and what truly makes you a man is recognizing the woman inside you. You are not a man till you realize your feminine dimension, because that exactly is toxic masculinity. I love looking after my skin, I love looking sexy, I love women and I love being a man (sic)."

3. Compassionate And Humble Towards His FansIf you have ever seen Irrfan greeting his fans, you would have noticed that the actor was his usual fun and jovial self. Babil, too, is following suit and has shown his humble nature while interacting with his fans a number of times. In one of the interactions with his fans, he was asked to unfollow the star kids and his humble response won our hearts. Babil, replying to the comment, wrote, βBhai toh meri yeh hi ummeed rahegi ki mein apni mehnat aur performance se aapka dil itna khush kar doon ki aapko yeh lage hi na ki mere journey mein koi unfairness hui hai.β He also added, βbrother, do you understand the pressure and expectations of being the son of someone who changed the acting in India cinema? I understand your frustration against nepotism, but there are two sides to every coin.β

4. Dresses And Talks Like IrrfanWhen Babil attended the 2021 Filmfare Awards, we couldn't help but notice the similarities between him and his father. Right from the outfit he chose to his mannerisms while accepting the posthumous honour given to his late father, it all reminded us of Irrfan. He chose to wear an outfit that his father wore in one of the fashion shows. Even his voice reminded us of Irrfanβs style of speaking.
Hereβs the snippet from the award ceremony:
A very emotional moment from #FilmfareAwards when Irrfan Khan's son Babil come on stage for collecting award behalf of him.
Babil & everyone else couldn't stop their tears.
We all miss you #IrrfanKhan.

Talking about the clothes, he shared on Instagram, βMamma dressing me up - So in my little speech, while accepting babaβs awards from @jaideepahlawat @rajkummar_rao @ayushmannk, I basically said, βthis is not my place to say anything. People always say that you cannot fit into your fatherβs shoes but at least I can fit into his clothes. I just want to show all my gratitude to the audience and our industry because of the warmth and love that you have hugged our family with, and all I can really say is that you and I will make this journey together and take Indian cinema to new heights, I promise.βΒ
He added, βThe story behind the clothes was that my father hated participating in fashion shows and ramp walks but he did it in these same clothes in order to continuously break out of his comfort zone. That is exactly what I was doing last night, tearing through into new spaces that Iβm uncomfortable with.β
Hereβs the post:

We really hope that Babil makes a mark in the industry. What do you guys think? Let us know in the comments section below.

Male Pattern Baldness is a sad reality for a lot of people, especially Indian men.
Β© PVR Pictures
While a few of us have really great genes, and a good head of hair because of them, a vast majority of peoplearenβt that fortunate. For most Indian men, no matter how good care they take of their hair, male pattern baldness, or hair fall is all but certain.
Β© Instagram/akshaykumar
The only way to completely avoid male pattern baldness is to take extremely good care of your hair and scalp, consult expert dermatologists regularly, and most importantly have good genes.Β
Β© Instagram/ayushmannk
Or, you can take the easy way out, deal with the male pattern baldness as it progresses, and use some basic hairstyling hacks to cover things up.
Can you use hairstyling hacks to actually cover up male pattern baldness? Sure you can! Here we list a few:
1. The Length Of Your Hair Β© Instagram/aparshakti_khurana
You donβt want your hair to be too short, nor do you want it to be too long, as both of them make things very obvious. Ideally, you should aim for a length that allows you to comb your hair backwards, and does not make it go haywire. So keep your hair moderately on the shorter side.
2. The Hairstyle You Choose Β© Instagram/vickykaushal09
A pompadour or something similar, where you get to shape your hair in a way that concentrates volume, and is preferably upwards in direction is your best bet. There are a number of variations of the classic pompadour that you can consider. If you trust your barber to help you out with a style that would work for you, then great, otherwise, consult a hairstylist if you feel like it.
3. The Hair Products Β© iStock
You need to choose your hair products very carefully. Forget products like hair gels, and wax and other heavy products. Invest in a good shampoo, and a mousse, both of which, should suit your dermatologically. The idea is to make your hair look voluminous, so go for products that add volume.
4. The Accessories Β© Instagram/aparshakti_khurana
Accessorise as much as you can. You also have a ton of options to choose from apart from baseball caps. Pick up a bucket cap, or a fedora hat, and trust us, you will be amping up your style as well. Just make sure that whatever you go for, it is a bit breathable, and does not suffocate your scalp.
5. Or, Just Flaunt It Like A Boss Β© Instagram/therock
For most of us, there will come a point of time when no matter what you do, you just canβt hide your bald spot anymore. If you really don't want to go for a hair transplant surgery or a scalp micro pigmentation, we suggest that you shave it off completely. Trust us, you will look far better with no hair, with half a head of hair, that is trying to cover up your entire head.
The Bottom Lineβ¦
Although male pattern baldness is something that we all have to deal with at some point in time or the other. There are some ways using which you can style your hair in a certain way that hides your bald spot, but in the longer run, it is better if you just shave things off, and embrace going clean-shaven.

Netflix on Monday finally released the much-awaited trailer ofΒ Searching For Sheela,Β which is an upcoming documentary about Ma Anand Sheela- who was the controversial one-time aide to spiritual leader Osho.
A chapter in their story was previously also showcased in the Netflix documentary seriesΒ Wild Wild Country.
In a statement released by Netflix, they said, "With the focus entirely on Sheela and her personality, the film explores her journey through India, her big homecoming, while reminiscing about her early life and looking forward to whatβs next... Does Sheela seek redemption or remain completely unaffected? Was Sheela a criminal or a woman in love? Is Sheela good or bad, black or white?"
Check out the trailer of the documentary here-
The 2-minute trailer gives a glimpse of Ma Anand Sheela and how her life changed after she was accused of fraud and murder. The documentary showcases her talking about her journey, returning to India after three decades and how her life has been viewed by the world from Oshoβs point of view, who also called her a murderer.
She also claimed that Osho was in love with her and also she mentioned that she has seen bigger scandals than showbiz people.
Check out what people have to say about it-
Waiting for this one!.

Executive producer Shakun Batra said in a statement, "I have always been very intrigued by Sheelaβs extraordinary life and through this documentary, weβve shadowed her as she traveled to India after almost 35 years. This is not an investigative piece, just an observation of a person who has had a questionable past and has always lived life on her terms."
He added, "We trace her journey as she grapples with societyβs expectations of an ex-convict and attempts to re-brand the public opinion of herself. Searching for Sheela is a documentary that tries to get a closer look at one of the most sensationalized personalities in India..."
